  1. Local Area Network Bus connection that supports multiple computers Generally less expensive than WAN for comparable speed Span relatively short distances Examples: Ethernet Token Ring FDDI Wide Area Networks Point-to-point or Multipoint Generally more expensive compared to LAN for comparable speed Can span large distances Depicted as lightning bolt Examples: 56K dedicated circuit T1, T3, OC3, OC12 Frame-Relay ATM LAN vs WAN

  2. Classic 10Mbps Ethernet • Ethernet interfaces • Thick Ethernet (10base5) • Thick coaxial cable (0.5” diameter) • 500meter max length • Thin Ethernet (10base2 802.3a) • RG58 coaxial cable • 185 meter max length • Twisted Pair Ethernet (10baseT 802.3i) • 4 pair UTP (unshielded twisted pair) cable • 100 meter max length

  3. Classic 10Mbps Ethernet • Thick Ethernet (10base5) • Thick coaxial cable (0.5” diameter) • Up to 100 drops per segment • Drill vampire tap into cable • Large minimum bend radius • 500m max segment length • 4 repeaters max for 2.5km total length

  4. Classic 10Mbps Ethernet • Thin Ethernet (10base2 802.3a) • RG58 coaxial cable • 185m max length, 30 drops max • Easy to implement, difficult to troubleshoot

  5. Classic 10Mbps Ethernet • Twisted Pair Ethernet (10baseT 802.3i) • Standard 4x UTP (unshielded twisted pair) 24 AWG cable (uses 2 of the 4 pairs) • 100 meter max length • Need category 3 or better cable • Media supports full duplex operation • Can use external or internal tranceiver

  6. Classic 10Mbps Ethernet • Twisted Pair Ethernet (10baseT 802.3i)

  7. Ethernet Family • 10Mbps • “10baseT” over copper (100m) • “10baseFL” or “FOIRL” over fiber • 100Mbps • “100baseTX” over copper (100m) • “100baseFX” over fiber (2km) • 1Gbps • “1000baseT” over copper (100m) • “1000baseSX” over multimode fiber (550m) • “1000baseLX” over singlemode fiber (5km – 10km) • “1000baseZX” over singlemode fiber (70km) • 10Gbps • “10GBASE-E” • 10/100 Ethernet (over copper) • 10/100/1000 Ethernet (over copper)

  8. Repeaters, Bridges, Routers • Repeaters (ISO model layer 1) • Regenerate ethernet signal to increase length • Ethernet hubs • Bridges (ISO model layer 2) • Reduce collision domain • Learn ethernet MAC addresses by listening and forward only when destination MAC known to be no other side or unknown • Implement spanning tree protocol to avoid loops • Routers (ISO model layer 3) • Reduce broadcast domain • Routes IP packets • Use routing table built from static routes and routing protocols to decide how to forward traffic

  9. Layer 2 Switches • Basic models are like bridges, but with more ports • Fancier models are manageable, speak SNMP and TELNET server and allow for advanced features like • Segment ports into VLAN (Virtual LAN) groups • Handle multiple instances of spanning tree, one per VLAN • Use 802.1Q to “Trunk” between switches • MDI / MDI-X detection • VTP (VLAN Trunk Protocol) • Maintain error and other counters on a per-port basis • Useful in network lab environment to quickly change the topology

  10. Layer 3 Switches • Function at Layer 3 like routers • Can switch packets very quickly in hardware • Offer limited routing protocol support • Generally a lot less expensive than a router when you need a large number of ports.

  15. Cat5 Ethernet Cables • Modular 8-position RJ45 connectors on both ends • PC network cards connect to HUBS with normal straight-through cables, transmit on pins 1&2, and listen on pins 3&6 • PC to PC, or HUB to HUB connections require a “crossover” cable where cable pins 1&2 and 3&6 are reversed • Routers and tranceivers are wired like PCs • Switches are wired like HUBs • Normal cables are usually blue or yellow or gray; crossover cables are usually red or orange but not always • Connect routers to each other with normal cables and a HUB or a crossover cable
